Grandma, Cho Cho and Me

In this colorful, delectable picture book about heritage and togetherness, family memories are shared around the breakfast table. A girl helps her grandmother prepare the big breakfast her family enjoys; while they cook, Grandma tells her stories about growing up in Jamaica, where big breakfasts helped farmers get through the day and filled stomachs when money was tight. Rich green callaloo, bright orange Scotch bonnets, and other staples of Caribbean cuisine make appearances in this tantalizing tale.
